Choosing between school and work can be an either-or proposition for many, whether for financial reasons or because there simply don’t seem to be enough hours in the day. When faced with this decision myself, I initially shared similar concerns. However, I soon found that at Wayfair this can be an “and” rather than an “or” situation. Wayfair encourages employees to continue their education and provides resources to help them do so. Though doing both is certainly a challenge, for me it has not only been doable, but also very rewarding. I am currently in my last semester of Georgia Tech’s Online Masters in Analytics program, during which I have taken classes in many areas such as statistics, operations research, and computer science. Over the course of my master’s program, I have found that my continued education has helped me greatly in my day-to-day work.
